Is there an advantage of a single variable that encodes the version,
compared to separate major/minor variables? Separate variables
would render the discussion of how to encode this moot.
GCC has these as predefined preprocessor macros:
__GNUC__
__GNUC_MINOR__
__GNUC_PATCHLEVEL__
We could likewise have separate variables for these.
Thanks,
